Description

Give yourself the gift of a perfect ski trip and come to Les Contamines in the French Alps! This guided ski touring program places you in the heart of Haute-Savoie and some of the best ski conditions in France, complete with a variety of terrain and an endless supply of fun!

Les Contamines-Montjoie is located in Southeastern France within the Haute-Savoie region, facing towards the most notorious peaks of the Alps, including Mont Blanc (4,810m) and the Domes de Miage (3,673m). With north- and south-facing slopes, there is an abundance of both powder and transformed snow. This high-quality snowpack, accompanied by the incredible scenery on nearly every route and run, make this quaint French village one of the best places for a ski touring extravaganza.

We will start early to guarantee a long and prosperous day in this winter wonderland, skinning through the expansive backcountry and off-piste gems of Les Contamines. The terrain includes Alpine bowls and high ridges, so if a steep drop-in was on your itinerary, you won’t be disappointed. I have an extensive knowledge of the area, so we can find a few of my favorite powder pockets in the Beaufortain – and you can discover some of your own!

Long runs are also common. The top of Les Contamines lifts reach 2,485, where we head off-piste and choose the trails that best suit our goals. I will ensure we have a safe and satisfying day of great ski touring that keep you smiling from run to run. If one day isn’t enough, we can plan an extended trip and I will help you create a multi-day trip that is right for you. Let me know what you are looking for, and I will tailor a program around your needs and abilities.

You should be in good shape to participate in this program, with an intermediate skiing proficiency and the ability to handle a full day off of groomed runs. Anyone looking for a challenging day off-piste away from the crowds is encouraged to join.
